This Mandarin Chicken is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I made it with rotisserie chicken and it turned out really well. The sauce is delicious and the chicken is tender.

I've tried several Mandarin Chicken recipes and this one is by far the best. The chicken is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe was easy to follow and the chicken turned out great! The sauce was a little too sweet for my taste, but I was able to adjust it by adding some lemon juice. Overall, a great recipe that I will definitely make again.
